He’s had his Phil of killer tale

Phil Spector has turned down the chance to watch a film about his murder trial

Spector is serving at least 19 years for the murder of Lana Clarkso

Prison bosses said they would let him view a DVD of the made-for-TV biopic starring Al Pacino and Helen Mirren.

Inmates’ tellies at ­California State Prison, Corcoran, are not hooked up to the TV channels ­showing it.

Pal Steve Escobar said: “He doesn’t care about the film of his trial.”

Spector’s attorney Dennis Riordan said the pop guru, 73, famous for his “Wall of Sound” production technique, also refused requests by Hollywood actor Pacino and producers of the movie to visit him in jail.

Spector is serving at least 19 years for the shotgun murder of Tinseltown starlet Lana Clarkson, 40, in 2003.

Spector, a gun fanatic who led a hermit-like existence after his music industry power faded, now leads a similar life in the state prison’s Substance Abuse Treatment Facility.

As part of his rehabilitation he has to work to pass his General Education Diploma, the US equivalent of GCSEs – but Spector is struggling.

Escobar added: “Phil is embarrassed about his GED studies. In fact, his ego is shattered.”
